Are you considering making high tech upgrades to your Atlanta Rental Property? This is a smart decision to make because most renters these days are comfortable with using smart phones and are comfortable with using technology in almost every area of their lives.
In this article, we will break down some of the high-tech upgrades that you should consider making to your rental property in Atlanta, and which high tech features you should ignore.
Smart Thermostat
The first high tech upgrade that you should consider making to your Atlanta rental property is a smart thermostat.
This is an important upgrade to make because it will save the wear and tear on your HVAC since a smart thermostat ‘remembers’ the preferred temperatures of people who live in the property. This will eliminate people constantly turning the thermostat temperature up or down.
Doorbell Camera
Another high-tech upgrade to make to your rental property in Atlanta is a doorbell camera. This is a great upgrade to make because a doorbell camera will ensure the safety of your tenants since it will help them to see who is at the door.
Doorbell cameras are cost-effective to install and a nice feature to have, especially if you plan on renting your property to a tenant who also has small children.
Smart Appliances
Smart appliances like a microwave, stove, and refrigerator are also great upgrades to make to rental property because they will enable your tenant to live more efficiently.
Another benefit that comes from making high-tech upgrades is that they may also be more appealing to tenants who are looking for environmentally friendly properties so it’s worth considering one or all of the appliances that we’ve suggested so far in this article.
Which High Tech Appliances Should You Ignore?
Smart Light Bulbs – These light bulbs are fun to have but can be costly for landlords to replace every year. If you want to install new light bulbs, try installing LED light bulbs into your rental property and let your tenants install smart light bulbs.
Smart Plugs – Although they are cool to own, smart plugs are also a high-tech upgrade that most landlords should ignore because any tenant can easily buy them online if they are serious about having all of their appliances be voice-activated.
